Stylish show home makeover in Glenrothes

13th October 2009 Print
Stylish show home makeover in Glenrothes The contrast of soft fabrics, a warm autumnal palette and oversized comfy sofas of the four bedroom Westbourne, meets the winter white, über cool and sophisticated feel of the three bedroom detached Raglan, to create two dramatically different showhomes that have enjoyed a stylish makeover, at Bryant Homes’ Balbirnie Green development in Glenrothes, Fife.

The four bedroom detached Westbourne showhome is decorated in shades and textures of taupe, biscuit and warm cream, with highlights of burnt reds and orange throughout to accentuate the light and airy style of this property. Comprising a spacious living room, an open-plan kitchen diner, four bedrooms and a family bathroom, the Westbourne design is ideal for growing families and buyers searching for more space.

The warm tones of the modern oak furniture gives an instant and relaxing welcome to the living room which is accessorised with soft cushions and an autumnal leaf design in tones of burnt terracotta, amber and rich reds which are cleverly teamed with creams and chocolate browns for an overall classically-styled room that encourages the visitor to relax. Overlooking the landscaped front garden, a large bay window gives this room plenty of light.

The well-equipped kitchen is open plan to incorporate a dining area which, coupled with patio doors leading out on to the garden, makes this space ideal for entertaining or spending time as a family. The kitchen is clean and fresh with gloss black units, silver granite worktops and simple, white floor tiles. A clear-glass dining table with high back, white leather chairs completes this room.

Upstairs, the four bedrooms largely follow the soft autumnal tones from downstairs. However, the master bedroom is particularly sumptuous through the use of a lavish chocolate brown bed-throw and textured cream and biscuit velour bed-runners. Embellished curtains and an abstract floral feature wall behind the double bed provide a focal point in this beautifully-styled room.

There’s one bedroom which appears to still be ‘under-construction’ – with an interesting brick design around the entire room that also makes it onto the bed-spread. The fun ‘construction characters’ pictures and toy tools to add detailing around the window make this is the perfect room for any budding builder!

In keeping with Balbirnie Green’s affluent style, the second showhome is decorated with a super sleek urban style which juxtaposes with the development’s rural location. White and silver with black accents create a sharp, smart and modern feel to the three bedroom detached Raglan showhome.

The living room is furnished with a silver velour sofa, and two super-cool high-back white leather ‘easy-chairs’ to maximise the light and sparkle within this showhome whilst upstairs the bedrooms have monochrome schemes with silver used to the max to create dramatic spaces. The master bedroom boasts embossed and textured fabrics using the introduction of petrol blue, a hint of dark chocolate and plenty of silver styling to offer a comforting contrast to the monochrome décor of the other bedrooms, making this a chilled place to relax.

Audrey Cook, comments: “Balbirnie Green offers buyers a taste of the quiet life, in a stunning location nestled between the dramatic Firth of Forth and the Lomond Hills, with local amenities on the doorstep. The two new showhomes are generous in size with flexible layouts that, when coupled with the stylish interior design, are sure to inspire homebuyers.”

Balbirnie Green is an impressive collection of family homes located in the picturesque town of Glenrothes. Situated alongside the local golf course, the development is sympathetic to its surroundings and benefits from a village green and a play area. Homebuyers are able to choose from a range of three and four bedroom detached homes, which start from only £156,500 for the three bedroom detached Raglan.

All amenities for day-to-day living are close at hand in Glenrothes. Transport links are excellent, with Junction 7 of the M90 approximately eight miles away. The development benefits from good public transport links with regular services running from Markinch railway station to Edinburgh, Dundee and Perth, while Edinburgh airport is just 20 miles away.

Homebuyers at Balbirnie Green can benefit from a range of incentives to help get them moving. So, whether you’re a first time buyer, looking to upgrade or downsize your property or searching for a good investment opportunity, Bryant Homes can tailor a package to suit your needs.
